Aimee Hartley founded School Breathe with a mission to bring the transformative power of breathwork into classrooms. With over 15 years of experience in breathwork and a deep understanding of its impact on wellbeing, focus, and emotional regulation, Aimee saw the urgent need for effective breathing techniques in schools when her son started school.
School Breathe brings breathwork into classrooms through engaging, science-backed breath techniques designed for both students, teachers, and parents. Breathwork for Classrooms provides short simple, daily exercises to enhance focus, emotional regulation, and wellbeing all online. Schools can access Breath Coach Training for staff and wellbeing workshops for students, including tailored sessions for teenagers to manage stress and anxiety. Inset days and staff training equip teachers with practical breathwork tools for themselves and their students. Additionally, our online community for parents offers resources and guidance to bring breathwork into the home, creating a holistic approach to wellbeing. Through live sessions, CPD certified online courses, and guided practices, School Breathe makes breathwork accessible and impactful for the whole school community. We also have breathwork programmes for parents and carers.
School Breathe started in a classroom in East London, introducing simple breathwork techniques to support students and teachers in managing stress, improving focus, and enhancing wellbeing. As awareness of the power of breathwork grew, so did demand, leading to its expansion across the UK and beyond. Today, School Breathe reaches classrooms worldwide, equipping educators with practical breathing exercises that fit seamlessly into the school day.
Through its Breath Coach Training for Children, School Breathe has trained breath coaches across Mexico, America, and Australia (and beyond), enabling them to bring these techniques into their own communities. With a growing network of trained coaches and partnerships with international schools, School Breathe continues to expand,
To experience School Breathe, schools can join our Breathwork for Classrooms, book INSET and Wellness Days, and train staff through our Breath Coach Training.
